Zac Efron Sets Sail as Charlie St. Cloud

Zac Efron Sets Sail as Charlie St. Cloud

Zac Efron loads up in a small sailboat to get some lessons at Marina del Rey in Los Angeles on Friday afternoon (June 26).

Looks like the 21-year-old actor is preparing for The Life and Death of Charlie St. Cloud. In the novel, cemetery caretaker Charlie’s world gets shaken up by beautiful Tess Carroll, a sailor who had plans to be one of the first women to circumnavigate the globe solo.

After some sailing lessons on the Toy Story sailboat, Zac munched on some sushi.

The Life and Death of Charlie St. Cloud is set to start filming in Vancouver in August this year.

15+ pics inside of sailor man Zac Efron

He really needs to cut his hair, but it’s apparent he is growing it out for the movie… I’ll just have to deal. Hopefully he had fun. I wonder who is playing this Tess chick…. hm.

xoxzanessaluvxox @ 8:55 am on 06/27/2009

I wonder who is going to play Tess in the movie..does anyone know? I can’t find it anywhere, maybe they haven’t cast her yet. He is as hot as ever. Hopefully his hair is just like that for the early part of the movie when he is a teenager & then he can cut it. I thought Zac would have to put on weight for the role, glad he doesn’t :D.
Toystory sailboat lol..so random lol x

And Zac visited her last week so it wasn’t really a long time since you’ve seen Zanessa pics.

He looks so hot :)
Guess he LOVES sailing, Im glad he has the chance to learn how to do it right.

#43–anette:

No, Zac did NOT live with his parents in 2008 or even 2007. He moved to LA when he was going to go off to Toronto to film Hairspray. Even then he chose an apartment close to Vanessa and her parents. She was still living at home and his apartment was just a couple blocks from the Hudgens’ home.

#49
athena @ 2:20 pm on 06/27/2009

@xoxzanessaluvxox: What if Tess is going to be played by Dawn Panabaker….remember when she and Zac had lunch together that while ago….?

Danielle Panabaker (or w/e her name is) just got cast in another movie so I doubt it’s her. We haven’t head anything about who’s going to play her yet, so we’ll see.

He looks good here, but there are definitely times that he looks better.

Lol @ 3:46 pm on 06/27/2009

@jenny:

Your comments are starting to annoy the hell out of me. I get that english is obviously not your first language and sometimes your translations are less than clear. But there is no need for the ridicoulous rumors and insinuations you make about both Zac and Vanessa. Both are individuals with there own careers and goals and should be treated as such. In someways you are worse than the haters out there. You come on here with silly questions and accusations against both Zac and Vanessas persons. They have aspects of their lives which do not involve fans and idiotic people such as yourself and they have a right to keep things private.

Jenny I think I am speaking on behalf a most who post on here when I say: If your going to post comments on here,make them relevant to what the actual post is about and get yourself a better translator so we can understand what you are trying to say!

kim @ 5:02 pm on 06/27/2009

Why is Zac using a Disney (Toy Story) sailboat!?! Maybe it isn’t for Charlie St. Cloud but for Pirates 4 practice! It was just in the news that Pirates 4 would be filmed sooner than thought! I know that Zac has said that he would love a part in that film. Well………….it is just a thought.

#63
Karen @ 5:06 pm on 06/27/2009

#61–kim:

I don’t believe this little sailboat is meant to be used for the Charlie St Cloud movie, just so Zac can practice. Since he obviously has no experience with a sail boat he is being started out on just something small—hence the name Toy Story. As he becomes more familiar with what he is doing I’m sure they will go to a bigger sailboat in his “training”.

Please give it a rest already. Stop with drama. This thread has nothing to do with Vanessa. This Thread is about Zac not his life love.

You need to stop with Rumors Zac is not sad in those pics. Zac has a job do. I agree with #66 and #55 your comments are driving me carzy.

Btw can’t wait to see Zac in The death and life of Charlie St Cloud.

Katty @ 9:37 pm on 06/27/2009

@jenny:

We don’t know yet.. calm down, jeez.
Zac and Vanessa are two responsible young adults. Just because one of them, or both, is filming a movie with a good looking romantic interest in it, does not mean one of them will cheat and/or end the relationship. They have been in other movies with good looking co-stars, and nothing has happened unprofessionally, or unfriendly.
Besides, Jenny, if you are that worried, Zac and Vanessa will be in Vancouver at the same time, and will be able to see each other a lot .
Your Alex comments are getting a tad annoying. A boy and a girl can be friends without cheating on their significant others, it’s not hard.

maria @ 1:29 am on 06/28/2009

I think Jenny needs to find a fan site in her own language and post there. She just doesn’t make sense to us.

As far as the “Toy Story” boat, it’s because all boats are NAMED. That marina and boating learning place has a fleet of boats, and they must all be named after movies or something. Zac just happened to be learning on “Toy Story”. And he doesn’t necessarily have to move onto a bigger boat. You can learn to sail just fine on a boat that size. I did.

#77
The Source @ 2:17 am on 06/28/2009

Zac is cool spoke with him on the phone a few hrs about micheal Jackson plus he reflected on his personal life with me in reguards to Vanessa.. can’t tell u the secrets because it wouldnt be fair to him but you will see in the coming weeks…

#77–The Source:

Do you really think anyone believes what you have written? You talked a couple hours about Michael Jackson and his personal relationship with Vanessa with Zac??? I think he met Jackson once…I highly doubt that he had that much to say about the man or that anyone would talk to someone about him for a long time on the phone unless they knew him very well and was relating stories about him over the years.

And him talking to you about his personal and private life with Vanessa? What a laugh. I don’t think he does that with even his closest friends, much less someone he doesn’t know. Also, IF you are that good of a friend to him where he might talk about something personal I highly doubt that you would go blabbing about it since Zac’s close friends seem to understand that he is a private person.

I seem to remember a poster such as yourself—but not by this name—posting a lot last year after HSM3 had finished filming and that person
was always insinuating that something was about to take place after a certain dates. Once, for example, the person was saying that Zac and Vanessa had gotten married but was going to keep it quiet until after all the promotions and premieres were over for HSM3. Many things like that were said and kept fans all up in the air all the time for weeks. So, just give it a rest while you are ahead.

Poor Zac, he’s only wanted for two bit movies like his little gf. All the hype for 17Again and it won’t come close to grossing what a Transformers or Harry Potter did in a weekend! He’s just not that good.

Next he”ll be writing his own movies so he and Vanessa will have something to do when the teen fans grow up and forget about them.
